Fascia (FASH-ah) is a thin but strong tissue that wraps around every muscle in your body and the structures inside the muscles. It also surrounds other structures in your body, including organs, nerves and blood vessels. Fascia forms a body-wide network of connective tissue that’s essential for proper function.
Like muscle tissue, fascial tissue can become injured, inflamed and painful. Myofascial release practitioners say the fascia can form adhesions, which are places where it’s bunched up and stuck together, causing the fascia to pull on other structures, create pain and impair function.
